PyPI’s New Archival Feature Closes a Major Security Gap
PyPI now allows maintainers to archive projects, improving security and helping users make informed decisions about their dependencies.
virustotal3 provides an easy way to use VirusTotal version 3 REST endpoints, including those exclusive to VirusTotal Enterprise such as Live Hunt, Retro Hunt and Zip Files that were not available in version 2.
https://virustotal3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
import os
import virustotal3.enterprise
API_KEY = os.environ['VT_API']
livehunt = virustotal3.enterprise.Livehunt(API_KEY)
rulesets = livehunt.get_rulesets()
print(rulesets)
File.upload()
method calculates the file size and picks the approriate endpoint.Installing with pip
pip install virustotal3
Install from repository
python3 setup.py install
The v3 API is in beta and under active development. While most of the implementation was tested and works perfectly, breaking changes might be introduced by VirusTotal. This rarely occurs, but recently URL.get_comments() and URL.get_votes() stopped working. An issue is current opened with VirusTotal (96772) and they are working on it.
If you are having issues, first make sure it does not come from the API itself. I'm in no way associated with VirusTotal. If it's an API bug, contact VirusTotal directly. Otherwise, open a GitHub issue.
